Love the detailed review with specific observations on the ride quality and how you should feel in a premium vehicle. Really appreciate you telling like it is Bobby. Many thanks 🙏
Drove 330i 2 weeks ago. Agreed on the stiff suspension and complicated user interface. According to the sales person, 3 series suspension will be changed to adaptive suspension in the coming month. So the ride quality would be not so stiff as Bobby pointed out. Coming from a Volvo driver, the BMW suspension is horrendous and the user interface should be completely revamped.
Brilliant review if not the best out there, thanks to RUclips for recommending it all the way in South Africa Thanks to you for recording such an epic and full detailed review l thoroughly enjoyed this…
Thanks for the review Bobby. Love my current gen G20 compared to the facelift version. The HMI is too much... Buttons are required to focus on driving rather than that screen.. It was simpler and straight forward easy to use. Only downside is it doesn't have adaptive m suspension due to Malaysia taking the option out... Wish that BMW will implement this in the next gen as that would be a perfect sports sedan. Kudos for the awesome review..
@@itisyouthatiadore At least this design doesn’t look like ah beng exterior of C Class that doesn’t looks good and ugly and interior design also looks weird.
In the 1st few seconds, I totally agree with u. I've driven the F30, G20 and now the G30, and this new cyber looking interior design is not my liking. But this design will most probably be in the next 5ser. The gear lever is gone, whether I use it or not the gear stick during driving, I still love to hold that stick. I didn't choose the Merc a long time ago and also today because the gear shifter is at the steering, it is like driving an old van. I actually like the E class but since BMW also doesn't have that gear stick anymore, personally for me I don't see any difference anymore.
You buy E Class can, but beware of aftersales, quality and also beware about spare parts. If you buy Mercedes, will take months or even more to arrive spare parts once have more defect quality parts issues. Aftersales will not able to help you as got defect quality part issues
I realised the problem isn't whether it is touch or not. It's about the UI design. Touch screens allow car makers to do so much. But first and foremost they need to have it properly thought through. Lotus Eletre's first try at a touch screen and they nailed it. Same goes with Land Rover and Audi. Mercedes new system is easy to use as well. Easiest is Volvo.

Bro. Ur videos on the g20 330i have damned the M suspension, but I got one last year and it's more than acceptable, even comfortable to an extent. I do agree that demo cars I've tried were rock hard but I believe they have been tuned proper at least for the last remaining pre face-lift batches. Hit me up if you want to try my stock unit 😏
I found on carlist, 330i but with up spec from recond side for pre-facelift. Specs like 340i but 330i, i think thats the best buy, and price also around 198k
Hi Bobby, would like to seek for your advice. I owned an E90 LCI 325i M Sport and looking to change to G20 LCI 330i M Sport. In terms of driving experience and ride quality, how are they both compare?
I heard that from April 2023 onwards the option to have m adaptive suspension in 330i would've solved the harsh ride problem. As for handling and performance, it's sublime. Absolutely grade A superb handling and performance.
Thank yoy for the true review on 330i,with such bumpy suspension, it just like driving a myvi ! decided with G30, for comfort. and i dun like the one pirce of touch screen, it doesn't give the essence onto the so call driver's car
1:27 into the video and I agree. I have a 2022 G20 and seeing all new models with this dumb screen is absolutely stupid & you mentioning disregarding dash design makes me hate it that much more. I’m happy with my pre lci model.
Hey Bobby, just wondering, does smart tunnel inside have speed trap camera? Since you drove above the speed limit hahaha, but I saw it multiple times there are signboards that says theres camera inside smart tunnel tho.
Your opinion on the suspension somehow contridict each other. Put M adaptive suspension aside for a bit. I think the engineers chose to have better handling at expense of ride comfort since budget is the biggest factor. After all 3er is a more driver focussed car. Of course if got money for adaptives is best of both worlds. 😉
See 2 bmw ix & i suddenly thinking, this car actually sold pretty well considering the design wasn't really well accepted when it first launch. Bc it's one of the ev that i see the most on the road.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one feeling the cumbersome of the latest ID8 system. It felt like BMW had hired engineers who helped designed the previous Lexus UI. The UI in the latest Lexus infotainment is miles ahead from its predecessor. Hopefully the whole UI experience can be better with the next software update.
Woah am I the only one who is bummed that the 320i does not. Come with a power booth.. Please tell me atleast thers is ambient lighting.. Can't see in your video
Personally I find that F22/F30 blends between conventional buttons, dial gauges and digital screen perhaps the best modern BMW UIX. The new ones are few step backwards and dare I say dangerous.
Agreed on the infotainment system- it sucks! Center screen is very poorly designed, kinda surprising for BMW Luckily I’m fortunate enough to be riding in the 340 LCI so i forget about all these shortcomings when i gun it hard hahaha. Paired with the M Performance Exhaust, this car sounds sweeeet
@@BobbyAngmalaysia Abosolutely agree. I test it before buying and without adaptive suspension is not comfortable, as you sayid in video, its bumby as fu.. , but with adaptive suspension its awesome and great comofort :)
Waiting for the day where every car's software is as good as our phones. They put so much emphasis elsewhere and then, we have this for the software. Haihh
Till today, only audi has built the best fully electronic meter dials with proper useful functions, doesn’t get blur under bright daylight and its easy to navigate through the functions. Mercedes made one that got a bad reception then bmw directly followed them🤦🏼♂️
But you go have a look at the latest mercedes digital speedo. They improved it, graphics are fancy but still functional, and that two little square touch sensitive buttons on the steering is so far the best implementation of UIUX control for touch screen + driving controls I've experienced to date
But mercedes reliability got many issues these days. Interior for Mercedes looks ugly including C Class. Even I tried to experience in C Class W206, UI OS for Mercedes have no difference between W206 and W205
@@BobbyAngmalaysia Are you sure 320i in KL and Selangor doesn’t have the M suspension? So does this mean it’s suspension are more comfortable? If yes, does make sense as obviously 320 is not for driver fanatic. More of family car with the badge.
Now with major improvements for updated iDrive OS 8 and also improving other parts for 3 Series G20 including BMW durability brand itself, no longer ruins anymore.
So….no matter how bad BMW is, at least not as bad as Mercedes where Mercedes is worst than BMW in terms not only interior, but also overall design, FC, power, reliability and features
hahaha this is one of the most hilarious and funny car review from bobby ang...honest review love it ...F you bmw engineers and designers...you ruined the brand BMW ...i think its designed by some tiktokers
Taking away physical buttons and replacing it with a giant screen and claim it as a futuristic design is just an excuse to cut cost. It is a shame that all the German cars have gone this way
Mercedes worst still. Almost all physical buttons all gone. Except for steering wheel and interior design looks uglier and weird and audio system for C Class looks like iPad. Which is worst than this car
All car technologies is changing. Merc also got, Volvo also got, China cars also got. Whatever it is. New design language will not make people get bored.
Depends on your taste. But at least this car also looks good though. Although S60 looks good but performance for S60 can’t beat this car and even top speed for S60 also lose to this
@@esk4105 Agreed 100%. But for the most part 80-90% of daily drive you would want the s60 suspension. Power is there when its needed 😬 over 400hp and 600nm at your disposal
On a straight green light, the S60 will leave the 330i behind. But on the move, the 330i's engine and faster transmission will gain back quickly. Then there's the 180kmh speed limit that will arrive very quick. As for comfort, suspension, specs, safety system, 360 cam, everything else the S60 is a better bargain. At the mountain roads, the 3 series reigns supreme. I don't think I can drive the V8 M3 faster going up genting than I can with this. It's just so dynamic, so damn power on demand, chassis is so so good this 330i
Damn that is disappointing when it comes to its infotainment. I thought when they updated to LCI with full screen display, they will up their game. Looks like it's really bad
But will be quite weird if using full touch screen display. Still need to have physical buttons and touch screen. Not like Mercedes, with full touch screen will have so many issues and design getting uglier for mercedes
@@zackzack6715 are u the same guy in Paul Tan? Every single thing Mercedes this Mercedes that. Come on don't need to do that. Although I'm a BMW fan and even booked a 330i i still appreciate Mercedes, no point demonizing your Competitor
chrischiang just tell mercedes fanboys to stop talking bad about bmw and other brands. No idea why mercedes fanboys are always love to do that when there is mercedes article, mercedes fanboys will defend their brand but never admit their weakness including quality issues while when there is any other luxury brands article like bmw, volkswagen, Audi, Porsche and lexus, Mercedes fanboys will simply badmouthing without any reasons and no facts. Mercedes fanboys are the one who started first but not anyone from any other brands. That’s why should tell mercedes fanboys to stop badmouthing for unknown reasons and no facts and no knowledge at all
Drive quality is good. 2 annoying points 1. Tie rod sound when you at low speed. Sounded like loose steering rack but it actually originate from tie rod. Even SC can't diagnose it well. 2. Horrible iD8. Can't even support video even when the car not in motion 😡😡😡. It's 1 step backwards from iD7. 110% agreed with you dumb UI/UX.
Unfortunately, C Class quality have tons of problems nowadays. Ride, comfort and design, C Class no longer better than 3 Series LCI. Durability ranking also tells that BMW and Mercedss have huge gap where Mercedes places the lowest position but BMW ranks at higher position. Even C Class have so many screen issues than 3 Series G20 LCI. Just tell the facts
It's a powerful car, but is it really promoted as family car? I do not think so. Not only 3 series, even my 2019 X3 suspension is stiff and not really comfortable because it was more bumpy. My wife said my brother's Harrier is much more comfortable 😆

@@zackzack6715 are u the same guy in Paul Tan? Every single thing Mercedes this Mercedes that. Come on don't need to do that. Although I'm a BMW fan and even booked a 330i i still appreciate Mercedes, no point demonizing your Competitor
chrischiang just tell mercedes fanboys to stop talking bad about bmw and other brands. No idea why mercedes fanboys are always love to do that when there is mercedes article, mercedes fanboys will defend their brand but never admit their weakness including quality issues while when there is any other luxury brands article like bmw, volkswagen, Audi, Porsche and lexus, Mercedes fanboys will simply badmouthing without any reasons and no facts. Mercedes fanboys are the one who started first but not anyone from any other brands. That’s why should tell mercedes fanboys to stop badmouthing for unknown reasons and no facts and no knowledge at all
@@northgirl9733 this is really childish.
Well you can ask mercedes fanboys to stop doing that, they are acting childishly, not me and not others
This is very disappointing from BMW now that I can finally afford a new 3 series. I much prefer the pre LCI to this rubbish screen. Why BMW???
Drive quality is good. 2 annoying points
1. Tie rod sound when you at low speed. Sounded like loose steering rack but it actually originate from tie rod. Even SC can't diagnose it well.
2. Horrible iD8. Can't even support video even when the car not in motion 😡😡😡. It's 1 step backwards from iD7. 110% agreed with you dumb UI/UX.
Suspension out.china 30% discount
Will take C300 over this. ...the ride and the meter design is not good...
Unfortunately, C Class quality have tons of problems nowadays. Ride, comfort and design, C Class no longer better than 3 Series LCI. Durability ranking also tells that BMW and Mercedss have huge gap where Mercedes places the lowest position but BMW ranks at higher position. Even C Class have so many screen issues than 3 Series G20 LCI. Just tell the facts
It's a powerful car, but is it really promoted as family car? I do not think so. Not only 3 series, even my 2019 X3 suspension is stiff and not really comfortable because it was more bumpy. My wife said my brother's Harrier is much more comfortable 😆
The size of it and pricing positioning means it is now serving its job more as a family car than purely premium sports compact.
luckily i already own a bezza so i don’t have to buy this 😆
Theyre clearly out of their mind..and lost their identity for sure
wdm u dont like vertical diffusers haha
They serve no purpose other than pretending to be diffusers
In short. The LCI BMW sucks.
This new G20 with new interior similar to the i4 is a drooler.
Doesn’t matter. At least not overdo much like Mercedes does. Mercedes interior is getting weird and uglier than BMW
I’m glad i bought the Arteon over this 😂 and at 261k its a bargain!
Arteon price went up to rm300k now
LCD screen looks cheap…
Yet, BMW iDrive OS 8 have improved a lot and no longer issues than before.
Lol. Chicken drumstick gear lever
Get VW Arteon
But not as reliable as BMW
@@RAM-fy1hr Why? Any reliability issue with Arteon?
Such awkward review. far from useful.
